Christening "U-BUY-A-BOND" (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  "The christening was done by Mrs. Guy Emerson, who banged the snout of the submarine with a bottle of champagne and renamed it the "U-Buy-A-Bond." There were some who said the submarine backed up and said "I won't," but it didn't matter anyway, for three men had already dashed into the craft's interior and gained tho honor of being the first to subscribe in a former German ship."
